TEKLYNX International, known globally for helping companies barcode better with reliable labeling software and customer support, published a new case study highlighting the successful software implementation with Graham Packaging, a provider of custom and sustainable food, beverage, household, and automotive containers.

Graham Packaging chose SENTINEL label printing automation software to replace its previous system, Loftware Print Server, which was retired at the end of 2024. Operational continuity and budget were the major decision factors. In addition, Graham Packaging compared the functionality and cost of its current product to various alternatives. The company saw TEKLYNX as the front-runner to meet their various needs.

“SENTINEL best met our requirements, having enough similarities to LPS to allow us to continue using our processes, but was more cost-effective,” said Noah Davis, IT Analyst at Graham Packaging.

With SENTINEL’s low-code integration method, Graham Packaging could also maintain existing system architecture without disruption or significant customization. Using the same connections and file drop workflows, the company migrated with very few changes, as well.

With TEKLYNX, Graham Packaging is:

Saving money on software and license expenses

Hosting SENTINEL on-premises (private server)

Integrating label printing with SAP

Printing uninterrupted to 150+ printers

Designing clearer and more modern labels

Achieving 99% labeling accuracy

Replacing LPS with SENTINEL resulted in consistent labeling, smarter spending, and positioned Graham Packaging for scalable growth.

“This project is a great example of how we prioritize our customers,” states Bill McCluskey, enterprise executive, TEKLYNX Americas. “We worked closely with Noah and the Graham Packaging team to understand their unique needs and identify a solution that aligned with their existing processes, avoided unnecessary costs, and ensured a smooth transition. The collaboration was strong from day one, and we look forward to continuing our partnership and supporting their growth.”
